[00:16] 7oka
    The boat's engine is busted!
[00:19] 7oka
    We'd better call for a rescue team to save us!
[00:22] 7oka
    Gimme your cell phone!
[00:23] 7yama
    The network's been doing so poorly that
[00:25] 7yama
    they canceled service for all
    the employee phones, remember?
[00:28] 7oka
    You'd think that'd be one of
    the last things they'd get rid of!
[00:31] 7oka
    How are we supposed to contact anyone?
[00:34] Sign/7guchi
    You guys doing well?
    That chartered ship I arranged is pretty good, right?
    I made a point to get one with a good cost/performance ratio.
    From Nanaguchi
[00:35] Sign/7guchi
    You guys doing well?
[00:37] 7oka
    It's from the boss!
[00:38] Sign/7guchi
    That chartered ship I arranged
    is pretty good, right?
[00:41] Sign/7guchi
    I made a point to get one with
    a good cost/performance ratio.
[00:44] 7oka
    Doesn't seem like a good choice to me.
[00:46] 7mori
    Especially considering the engine trouble.
[00:48] 7guchi
    What? There's engine trouble?
[00:51] 7yama
    He responded already.
[00:52] 7guchi
    Don't you dare do anything
    dumb like call for a rescue team!
[00:55] 7guchi
    You boys don't have any
    kind of accident insurance,
[00:58] 7guchi
    so if you call a rescue chopper,
[01:00] 7guchi
    it's gonna cost an arm and a leg...
[01:03] 7guchi
    which will mean instant bankruptcy
    for a tiny TV station like ours!
[01:06] 7oka
    He could've at least gotten
    us some insurance...
[01:08] 7guchi
    By the way, you have no international
    travel insurance either,
[01:12] 7guchi
    so if you get sick or injured,
    you'll have to tough it out!
[01:16] 7guchi
    My throat hurts.
[01:17] 7mori
    I think I'm coming down with something.
[01:19] 7guchi
    Now, then...
[01:22] 7mori
    Gotta feel sorry for the pigeon
    that was made to deliver this one.
[01:22] Sign
    Now, then...
[01:26] 7guchi
    Due to the business difficulty
    that TV Nanana is experiencing,
[01:30] 7guchi
    we will be using these messenger pigeons
    instead of cell phones for communications,
[01:34] 7guchi
    in order to cut back on expenditures.
[01:37] 7oka
    Can we seriously get a hold
    of anyone with these things?
[01:40] 7guchi
    And you fools better not
    take these pigeons lightly!
[01:43] 7guchi
    They're an elite flock of service animals,
    given top-level training by first-in-field breeders!
[01:48] Sign
    Niinuma
[01:49] 7guchi
    We're talking real brand-name birds, and each
    one costs 50,000 yen, so be careful with them.
[01:50] Sign
    Top Grade Messenger Pigeon
[01:53] 7mori
    50,000 a pigeon?!
[01:55] 7yama
    That'd pay for a phone.
[01:58] 7yama
    Man, reading these is kind of a drag.
[02:00] 7guchi
    Aw, damn it! Damn it, damn it, damn it!
[02:04] 7mori
    Whoa, what the?
[02:05] 7oka
    His tone changed all of a sudden.
[02:07] 7guchi
    Things really suck when business is bad!
[02:09] 7guchi
    No cell phones, no taxi fare,
[02:11] 7guchi
    can't produce documents with color,
[02:13] 7guchi
    and no entertainment budget at all!
[02:16] 7guchi
    I've been forced to drink
    at home because of it!
[02:21] 7guchi
    Damn it!
[02:23] 7oka
    He's just mad he has to
    pay for his own booze.
[02:24] 7mori
    Seriously.
[02:26] 7guchi
    That being the case...
[02:27] 7guchi
    you boys need to get footage of
    this giant kraken, no matter what.
[02:32] 7guchi
    If we get some decent ratings,
    it'll mean better business for the company,
[02:36] 7guchi
    and that'll mean taxi fare and entertainment
    expenses will flow like wine!
[02:43] 7guchi
    That is all. I'll be
    praying for your success!
[02:47] 7oka
    And so, we started using messenger pigeons.
[02:51] 7mori
    It costs a ton to feed these guys, huh?
[02:55] 7yama
    I'm pretty sure the phones
    would've been cheaper.
